Definitions
- the invention relates to a press roll with a controllable bending line, and also to a machine for treating web-like or plate-like material with such a press-roll.
- Such press-rolls so-called NIPCO rolls
- These press-rolls contain a stationary carrier, a roll jacket rotating around the carrier, and a plurality of support sources in order to support the roll jacket at the carrier.
- the roll jacket is resiliently deformable and consists of a reinforced elastomer or polyurethane.
- the support sources are arranged lying in a row at equal intervals and can freely follow the bending deflection of a counter-roll.
- Each support source consists of a piston in cylinder arrangement which can be pressurized with a pressure liquid and a sliding shoe which is displaceable towards the roll jacket under the action of the arrangement.
- press rolls are used in the upper speed range, i.e. greater than 15 m/s, and in the upper linear force range, i.e. 300N/mm. This places high requirements on the constructional design and has the consequence of corresponding cost and complexity; an appropriate pressure source is in particular required.
- the present invention provides a press roll with a controllable bending line, which can be used in the lower speed range, smaller than 15 m/s, and in the lower linear force range, 80N/mm, and which can be operated with a pressure medium having a maximum of 10 bars from a customary auxiliary energy network, with the press roll also being executed in a lightweight construction with its conformity being substantially improved.
- a uniform linear force can be generated with the use of a jacket tube and the drive torque of the roll can be kept small;
- the load distribution can be more uniformly distributed over the surface width of the roll and the axial flexibility can be improved;
- the manufacture can be made less expensive with the use of a piston-in-cylinder arrangement with an elongated cylinder block;
- the field of use can be enlarged by using a force amplifier.
- a machine for treating web-like material with the press roll is characterized in that the press roll is an F-roll or a K-roll.
- FIG. 1 is an end section of a preferred embodiment of a press roll in accordance with the invention in section;
- FIG. 2 is a section along the line II--II in FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a perspective illustration of a preferred embodiment of a support element
- FIG. 4 is a perspective illustration of another embodiment of a support element
- FIG. 5 is a part of an end-section of another embodiment of a press roll in accordance with the invention.
- FIG. 6 is a section along line VI--VI in FIG. 1, in which a support element is illustrated with an arrangement for force enhancement.
- a roll contains a carrier 1, which is rotationally fixedly arranged, a jacket tube 2 which includes a roll jacket 3 of an elastomer and which surrounds the carrier 1, and a plurality of support elements 4, which are arranged in a row distributed over the width area A of the roll. Furthermore, a guide bearing 5 is provided, on which the jacket tube 2 is arranged. A sealing ring 6 is arranged between the guide bearing 5 and the jacket tube 2. It is pointed out that the guide bearing at the other end section of the roll is designed in the same way. Furthermore, a retraction device 7 is provided.
- the jacket tube 2 consists of a running tube 11, which is put together from a plurality of ring sections 12 of metal and intermediate rings 13 of a resiliently deformable material and a support jacket 14 of plastic. O-rings or a pre-vulcanized material can be used as the intermediate rings.
- the support jacket 14 consists with advantage of a glass-fiber reinforced plastic, which is applied to the running tube 11 through a winding process so that the jacket tube 2 is formed as one component.
- the roll jacket 2 of elastomer is subsequently applied to this component, for example vulcanized thereon.
- the support elements 4 include a piston in cylinder arrangement and a rolling body 16 in the form of a rolling element bearing.
- the cylinder cut-outs 17 are formed in the carrier 1, which stands in connection with a line system.
- the line system includes a main string 18, which extends through the longitudinal extent of the carrier 1, and a number of branches 19 corresponding to the number of support elements 4, which open into the cylinder recess 17.
- the piston 21 has a piston ring 22 and is movably arranged in the cylinder cut-out 17 in order to support the ball bearing 16 relative to the roll jacket 2.
- the rolling bodies 16 are journalled on an axle 23. A basic orientation of the rolling body is achieved in advantageous manner through this axle.
- the piston 21 has a section 24 which partly surrounds the rolling body and engages around the axle 23 so that the piston 21 stands in a direct operative connection with the axle 23.
- the rolling body is a ball 26 which is journalled on the axle 23.
- the piston 27 is of cylinder-like shape and is equipped with a piston ring 28.
- the piston-in-cylinder arrangement can be provided with a cylindrical bore.
- FIG. 5 shows a press roll which contains a fixed carrier 30, a jacket tube 32 with a roll jacket 33 of elastomer, and a plurality of support elements 4, the design and association of which relative to one another are the same as in the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 3. Furthermore, a guide bearing 35 is provided on which the jacket tube 32 is arranged.
- the jacket tube consists of a running tube 36, which is formed helically with windings 37 contacting one another, and of the support jacket 14 of glass-fiber reinforced plastic, which is applied as already mentioned by winding.
- the support elements 4 include a piston-in-cylinder arrangement 37 and a rolling body 38.
- the cylinder cut-outs 17 are formed in a cylinder block 39, which is secured to the carrier 31.
- the cylinder cut-outs 17 are in connection with a line system (not shown).
- the piston 21 is movably arranged in the cylinder cut-out 17 in order to displace the rolling bodies 38 relative to the jacket tube 32.
- the rolling bodies 38 are journalled on the axle 23.
- the piston 21 has a section 24 which surrounds the rolling body and engages over the axle 23 (FIGS. 3 and 4).
- press rolls which can be designed as freely movable self-adapting rolls, also termed F-rolls, or as concentrically guided rolls, also termed K-rolls.
- F-rolls freely movable self-adapting rolls
- K-rolls concentrically guided rolls
- the guide bearing 5 for an F-roll is shown in FIG. 1.
- the carrier has a bearing spigot 49 at both ends in order to arrange the press roll in a machine.
- a section 50 is formed adjoining the carrier 1 and cooperates with the guide bearing.
- the guide bearing has an outer ring 51, an inner ring 52, a ball bearing 53 and a sealing ring 54.
- the retraction device 7 has two support elements 4. These support elements 4 act on a section B in order to bend the jacket tube 2 contrary to the direction of action of the press roll. In this connection the support elements 4 are pressurized with compressed air via a separate line system 8.
- a spacing C is provided between the inner ring 52 and the carrier 1, and a guide surface 55 for the inner ring is formed at the carrier 1.
- the Racket surface region which is not loaded during use, can be relieved or lifted off from a counter roll in an advantageous manner by the retraction device.
- FIG. 5 shows the guide bearing 35 for the K-roll.
- the carrier 30 has a bearing spigot 31 in order to arrange the press roll in a machine.
- the guide bearing is designed in the same manner as the guide bearing 5 for the F-roll.
- the inner ring 52 is supported on the bearing spigot of the carrier 31, whereby a guide surface on the carrier, such as is provided with the F-roll, can be dispensed with.
- the press roll contains a stationary carrier 30, a jacket tube 32 with a roll jacket 33, and a plurality or pneumatically loadable roll bodies 38 in order to support the roll jacket 33 on the carrier 30 at the press position.
- the press roll which is executed in a light manner of construction, shows a good conformity and can be operated from a customary auxiliary energy network with a pressure of a maximum of 10 bar.
- the press roll can be used as an F-roll or as a K-roll in machines for the treatment of web-like or plate-like material, for example printing machines, textile machines or the like.
